Magnetic recording media are described which comprise a support having a magnetic recording layer thereon. The magnetic recording layer is made of a dispersion of magnetic particles in a binder and a specific type of fatty acid-modified, fluorinated organosilicone. The organosilicone is represented by the general formula ##STR1## in which R 1 represents a monovalent saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon having 7 to 21 carbon atoms, R 2 represents a methyl or phenyl group, each R 3 represents a OCOR 1 in which R 1 has the same meaning as defined above, Y represents --CF 3 or --(CF 2 )-- k W in which k is an integer of from 1 to 8, and W is hydrogen or fluorine, and l, m and n are independently an integer provided that 0≦l<200, 1≦m<100, 1≦n<100, and l+m+n≦300. |
